MOKANE, Mo. – Scotland County was coming off their biggest win in a couple years as they beat rival Knox County. Their reward was a road trip to the No. 4 ranked team in Class 2. South Callaway beat Scotland, 55-0.

“They are just really good and really fast. Our offensive line struggled and we couldn’t get anything started on offense,” said Scotland County head coach Daniel Burns.

The Tigers were held just close to 50 yards of total offense.

The Bulldogs jumped out early and led 14-0 at the end of the first quarter.

In what was a depressing night for the Tigers they can take one thing out of Friday night’s game. “That is the best team we will see all season. It let us know that we need to get tougher and more physical, if we do that we will have success the rest of the season. The key is that we have to move on from this loss,” said Burns.

Like their TRC rival Milan, the Tigers have a high school scheduling oddity next week. Scotland was scheduled to face Henry County. They will now play Windsor in Fayette at a neutral site.

“Our offensive line has to play better and give our running backs chances to make plays,” said Burns.
